Lentikart Help Center

Lenticular printing uses a special lens to create the illusion of depth or movement in a printed image. This lens, known as a lenticule, has parallel ridges that refract light to display different images or perspectives depending on the viewing angle. It's commonly used for 3D effects, animations, and image transitions.

The smallest size that maintains quality is approximately 1″ square, as smaller sizes may cause fine lines to break up under the lens. The largest size we can produce is 12″x 18″. Custom sizes can be discussed based on your project requirements.

The minimum order quantity for lenticular printing can vary depending on the printer and the size of the project. We can process single piece also if needed to millions of pieces. Though price drops significantly as quantity increases.

For the best lenticular printing results, use images with distinct foreground and background elements or motion. Ideal choices include 3D graphics, animations, and morphing images. Ensure high resolution and vibrant colors for optimal quality.

Lenticular printers typically require high-resolution image files in formats like JPEG, TIFF, AI,CDR or PSD. It's important to check with the printer for their specific file format requirements.

Recommended resolution is 300dpi or more.

The cost of lenticular printing is influenced by the project size, design complexity, and quantity. Additionally, the choice of materials and any special finishes will affect the overall price.

The turnaround time for lenticular printing varies depending on the printer and project size. It typically involves additional design and production steps compared to traditional methods, so plan for extra time. For specific timelines, please contact us with your project details.
